Amazing professor! Is very helpful and will come in outside of class to work with you on your assignments and class work. Extremely easy course if you actually pay attention and follow his instructions. Most people are able to get a high 90 if they try and don't make any silly mistakes (which can cost you!). PS NO TEXTBOOK

Comment:

Physiology is a SCARY course, especially if you're not from a bio background. I did really well in this course mainly due to his lectures. I cannot imagine how I could've possibly passed without his explanations. He seriously knows how to teach.

Comment:

This was an easy class if you have a science background. Mike is a great prof that really cares about his students. There was a ton of free marks in the class (10%) and the midterms and final were easy if you studied. Too bad he won't be lecturing anymore, he got promoted... :(

Mike is one of the best profs I have ever had at UW. He is always willing to talk to students and help them out in a very humble way. This is one prof that cares about his students, and his passion for the material rubs off!

Comment:

He's my favourite prof so far at UW. I love him. I was really sad when the class was over. I thought it would be a tough course, but with him it was all so relevant and interesting. Too bad he's department chair now, no more lectures.

Such a nice guy! there was an annoying girl who asked A LOT of questions and he didn't even act annoyed. He loves his subject and is very intelligent, but humble. The material is tough, but doable the way he sets it up. Great explanations. I love him.
